The True Trump is a Gimpy Vamp

Fox News host Megyn Kelly is no shrinking violet, but really: If Trump can’t handle her perfectly legitimate, straightforward questions without resorting to the crassest of schoolboy responses, then he’s no tougher than a partially toasted marshmallow. Judging from Trump’s shrieks of wounded ego, he’d probably run crying home to momma if a three-year-old girl with bows on her hair called him a “meanie” and made angry faces at him.

This is par for the course from a man who inherited all the wealth of Richie Rich but acts as if he personally invented money. Probably half the Junior Achievement students in the country could take an inherited $400 million and plaster their names all over ugly buildings, even without needing to hire enough lawyers to figure out how to game bankruptcy laws so as to walk away four times while leaving not just lenders but plenty of small-business vendors high, dry, and undeservedly hurting.

Judging from the nonsense that spews from this man’s blowhole, if his brain were ink, it wouldn’t dot an ‘I.’

His supporters say, though, that they admire him for at least “telling it straight,” saying whatever his feeble mind happens to think. Even that isn’t true, though: Trump doesn’t say what he believes; he says whatever he thinks people want to hear or, if that doesn’t work, whatever will bring him the most attention.

This is a man who first rocketed to the top of the polls by talking tough against illegal immigrants. Yet less than three years ago he was blaming Mitt Romney for not being nice enough to illegals – and he, Trump, was suggesting that the United States should provide a “path” to citizenship not just for 11 million illegals, but 30 million.

Trump is a chameleon, a charlatan, and a certifiable con-man. He pretends to be conservative, but (as has been amply documented) he has a long, long record of being anti-gun, pro-abortion “rights,” pro-taxes, pro-socialized medicine, for even more abusively expanded powers of government to confiscate private land, for massive government spending (he supported Barack Obama’s 2009 “stimulus” that stimulated almost nothing but government debt), and for the most leftist of politicians – giving well over half a million dollars to the likes of Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, Hillary Clinton, Chuck Schumer, Anthony Wiener, Edolphus Towns, and a host of other of liberal louts who like nothing better than to tax and regulate ordinary Americans into subservience to big-government busy-bodies.

Trump has played footsie with the mob so often that even his socks may be subject to omerta restrictions. He has vulgarized the culture in a way even Madonna might envy. He has spent so much money trying to buy (or at least rent) politicians that he is a walking advertisement for corporate-political cronyism. And, as Megyn Kelly’s debate question indicated, he has treated women with less respect than even Rodney Dangerfield might earn on one of his very worst days.

Trump has no proof for his claims about the Mexican government deliberately sending rapists our way (although it is true that President Obama has let loose hundreds of violent alien criminals); no remotely plausible way to get the Mexican government to pay for a wall across the border that as recently as 2012 Trump himself seemed to want to make more porous; no actual public plan to deal with illegals; no public plan to revive the American economy; no known record of saying he was wrong for advocating higher taxes, socialized medicine, and hundreds of billions of dollars of non-stimulating “stimulus” spending; and certainly nothing indicating he has embraced any limits on the power of government to take the private property of the working poor for the benefit of plutocratic wealth inheritors and squalid deal-makers like himself.

The celebrated conservative columnist John Fund this weekend at National Review Onlinecompared Trump to the spoiled brat Douglas C. Neidermeyer from Animal House. (For those who don’t remember; Neidermeyer wasn’t one of the irresponsible but likable members of the wild fraternity; he was the obnoxious, officious, rich-boy prig who was the fraternity’s enemy, but who deflated like a Tom Brady football when facing any real challenge.)

If I wanted somebody with real strength to stand up to ISIS or Vladimir Putin, I’d take Megyn Kelly in a heartbeat over Donald Trump. A match between Trump and an international thug would probably leave Trump – and everybody he is supposed to be protecting – bruised, battered and, yes, bleeding.

Expect a firm letter from Rosie O’Donnell. Megyn found a good way to not require discussions on substantive topics. Megyn should resign for the good of Fox and it’s viewers.

“I am the most fabulous whiner … And I keep whining and whining until I win.”DONALD TRUMP

Oldefarte

THIS NATION IS $17 TRILLION IN DEBT…..Donald Trump!!!!!

Oldefarte

She was under direct orders from her management, who have since capitulated to Trump [due to his apparent threat to avoid future appearances on FOX]!!!!

Both Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders are attracting crowds and potential votes because they have tapped into the anger of the electorate who want nothing more to do with the mealy mouth, weak spine , politically correct politicians that represent the interest of the elite political and economic class and their paid media.

RufusChoate

Trump and Sanders are appealing to the same people: The Infantile simpletons who see the government as a source of benefits for their particular groups and an ability to punish people not in their group.

No one with a scintilla of conservative philosophy or personal ethics would believe such a unprincipled P.T. Barnum carnival barker like Trump or Sanders or react to the current political conundrum with such vehemence and irrational anger.

Richard Karkkainen

Quite the contrary.

Oldefarte

“P.T. Barnum” is already POTUS!!!!

Richard Karkkainen

The country needs an alpha male as President. We have been led too long by wimps who would rather blather about than take action.

Oldefarte

Tell us something that any fifth-grader doesn’t know already!!!!

Richard Karkkainen

Fifth graders, of course. But my comment was directed to you.

Oldefarte

Stick with your audience of “Fifth graders” instead!!!!

Oldefarte

Well we now have a five-bit politician that the American fools allowed [due to political correctness and stupidity concerning DIVERSITY], so a “two-bit” one is a vast improvement. If Kelly can HANDLE THE HEAT then she should STAY THE YOUKNOWHAT OUT OF THE KITCHEN. FOX’s management is responsible for this little female twerp personally attacking Trump in order to destroy his candidacy and facilitate that of their preferred RINO. Let’s see these TV prostitutes ask similar questions of HillyBilly and her cigar/pizza sidekick [or even the other Republican candidates]. Why did not these so-called journalists ask instead responsible questions of him regarding his political positions, instead of attacking him personally [oh and Trump’s answer regarding his intended target of the PIG remark was/is justified and accurate; and possibly should be directed at the current leading candidate of the other political party also]. No Michael Savage’s commentary was spot-on regarding this issue, and no doubt FOX’s management was directly responsible for this directed attack upon Trump so as to benefit their politica choice[s] !!!!!

Richard Karkkainen

If you want to find how the cow ate the cabbage, refer to the following:

Trump has never won an election in his life. He is obviously a stooge for the dmthgs, and his only function is to sow confusion and keep the money and draw attention away from viable candidates like our fighting governors. The dmthgs will stop at nothing in their quest for arbitrary power (permanent majority). Fk them.

Richard Karkkainen

Praise be to non-politicians who are willing to devote their time and money to correcting the once great USA.

RufusChoate

No one will ever convince me that Trump was not recruited by the Clintons to disrupt the stellar and accomplished GOP field. It is just like the collusion that H. Ross Perot was caught engaging in in 1991.

The Clintons and RINO’s only get elected when Conservatives are divided. Trump is the ultimate in Republican in Name Only.

Richard Karkkainen

If the GOP field is stellar and accomplished, then that will become self evident as voters express themselves.

RufusChoate

You’re really not for the game. No voters have expressed anything about Trump at this time you are resting your opinions on polls of simpletons who answer the phone and are the least informed of any group of voters.

If substantive policy position really mattered for your support, you would have no good opinion of Trump from either the right or the left.

I suspect your ardor is based on Trump’s appearance on the WWE which you still hold to be a real sport.

Keep trying; eventually you will convince yourself that you have wisdom isolated.

RufusChoate

You’re funny. Close Clinton friend Trump is playing you for the dolt and you are apparently fine with that.

Richard Karkkainen

Is this Clinton a WWE advocate or admirer? It is apparently something with which you have great familiarity.

RufusChoate

Yawn.

Richard Karkkainen

A friend sent the following to me; read it, if you can: “An interesting take on The Donald.

At at least he’s waking up some of the RINOs. The criticisms of Trump are amazingly​ missing something. They are​ lacking in ​negative stories from those who work for him or have had business dealings with him. After all the employees he’s had and all the business deals he’s made there is a void of criticism. In fact, long term employees call him a strong and merciful leader and say he is far more righteous and of high integrity​ than people may think​.And while it may surprise many, he’s actually humble when it comes to his generosity and kindness. A good example is a story that tells of his limo breaking down on a deserted highway outside of New York City. A middle-aged couple stopped to help him and as a thank you he paid off their mortgage, but he didn’t brag about that. Generous and good people rarely talk of charity they bestow on others.​But as much as all this is interesting, the real thing that people want to know is what Donald Trump’s plan is for America. It’s funny how so many people say they don’t know what it is, or they act like Trump is hiding it. The information is readily available if people would just do a little homework. But, since most Americans won’t do their own research, here, in no particular order, is an overview of many of Trumps positions and plans:

1.) Trump believes that America should not intervene militarily in other country’s problems without being compensated for doing so. If America is going to risk the lives of our soldiers and incur the expense of going to war, then the nations we help must be willing to pay for our help. Using the Iraq War as an example, he cites the huge monetary expense to American taxpayers (over $1.5 trillion, and possibly much more depending on what sources are used to determine the cost) in addition to the cost in human life. He suggests that Iraq should have been required to give us enough of their oil to pay for the expenses we incurred. He includes in those expenses the medical costs for our military and $5 million for each family that lost a loved one in the war and $2 million for each family of soldiers who received severe injuries.

2.) Speaking of the military, Trump wants America to have a strong military again. He believes the single most important function of the federal government is national defense. He has said he wants to find the General Patton or General MacArthur that could lead our military buildup back to the strength it needs to be. While he hasn’t said it directly that I know of, Trump’s attitude about America and about winning tells me he’d most likely be quick to eliminate rules of engagement that handicap our military in battle. Clearly Trump is a “win at all costs” kind of guy, and I’m sure that would apply to our national defense and security, too.

3.) Trump wants a strong foreign policy and believes that it must include 7 core principles (which seem to support my comment in the last point):
· American interests come first. Always. No apologies.
· Maximum firepower and military preparedness.
· Only go to war to win.
· Stay loyal to your friends and suspicious of your enemies.
· Keep the technological sword razor sharp.
· See the unseen. Prepare for threats before they materialize.
· Respect and support our present and past warriors.

4.) Trump believes that terrorists who are captured should be treated as military combatants, not as criminals like the Obama administration treats them.

5.) Trump makes the point that China’s manipulation of their currency has given them unfair advantage in our trade dealings with them. He says we must tax their imports to offset their currency manipulation, which will cause American companies to be competitive again and drive manufacturing back to America and create jobs here. Although he sees China as the biggest offender, he believes that America should protect itself from all foreign efforts to take our jobs and manufacturing. For example, Ford is building a plant in Mexico and Trump suggests that every part or vehicle Ford makes in Mexico be taxed 35% if they want to bring it into the U. S., which would cause companies like Ford to no longer be competitive using their Mexican operations and move manufacturing back to the U. S., once again creating jobs here.
6.) Trump wants passage of NOPEC legislation (No Oil Producing and Exporting Cartels Act – NOPEC – S.394), which would allow the government to sue OPEC for violating antitrust laws. According to Trump, that would break up the cartel. He also wants to unleash our energy companies to drill domestically (sound like Sarah Palin’s drill baby, drill?) thereby increasing domestic production creating jobs and driving domestic costs of oil and gas down while reducing dependence on foreign oil.

7.) Trump believes a secure border is critical for both security and prosperity in America. He wants to build a wall to stop illegals from entering and put controls on immigration. (And he says he’ll get Mexico to pay for the wall, which many have scoffed at, but given his business successes I wouldn’t put it past him.) He also wants to enforce our immigration laws and provide no path to citizenship for illegals.

8.) Trump wants a radical change to the tax system to not only make it better for average Americans, but also to encourage businesses to stay here and foreign businesses to move here. The resulting influx of money to our nation would do wonders for our economy. He wants to make America the place to do business. He also wants to lower the death tax and the taxes on capital gains and dividends. This would put more than $1.6 trillion back into the economy and help rebuild the 1.5 million jobs we’ve lost to the current tax system. He also wants to charge companies who outsource jobs overseas a 20% tax, but for those willing to move jobs back to America they would not be taxed. And for citizens he has a tax plan that would allow Americans to keep more of what they earn and spark economic growth. He wants to change the personal income tax to:
· Up to $30,000 taxed at 1%
· From $30,000 to $100,000 taxed at 5%
· From $100,000 to $1,000,000 taxed at 10% · $1,000,000 and above taxed at 15%

9.) Trump wants Obamacare repealed. He says it’s a “job-killing, health care-destroying monstrosity” that “can’t be reformed, salvaged, or fixed.” He believes in allowing real competition in the health insurance marketplace to allow competition to drive prices down. He also believes in tort reform to get rid of defensive medicine and lower costs.

10.) Trump wants spending reforms in Washington, acknowledging that America spends far more than it receives in revenue. He has said he believes that if we don’t stop increasing the national debt once it hits $24 trillion it will be impossible to save this country.

11.) Even though he says we need to cut spending, he does not want to harm those on Medicare, Medicaid, or Social Security. He believes that the citizens have faithfully paid in to the system to have these services available and that the American government has an obligation to fulfill its end of the bargain and provide those benefits. Therefore, he wants to build the economy up so that we have the revenue to pay those costs without cutting the benefits to the recipients. He disagrees with Democrats who think raising taxes is the answer and says that when you do that you stifle the economy. On the other hand, when you lower taxes and create an environment to help businesses they will grow, hire more workers, and those new workers will be paying taxes that become more tax revenue for the government.

12.) Trump also wants reform of the welfare state saying that America needs “a safety net, not a hammock.” He believes in a welfare to work program that would help reduce the welfare roles and encourage people to get back to work. And he wants a crackdown on entitlement fraud.

13.) Trump believes climate change is a hoax.

14.) Trump opposes Common Core.

15.) Trump is pro-life, although he allows for an exception due to rape, incest, or the life of the mother.

16.) Trump is pro 2nd Amendment rights.

17.) Trump’s view on same-sex marriage is that marriage is between a man and a woman, but he also believes that this is a states rights issue, not a federal issue.

18.) Trump supports the death penalty. Trump believes that there is a lack of common sense, innovative thinking in Washington (Hmmm… looks like he believes in horse sense!). He says it’s about seeing the unseen and that’s the kind of thinking we need to turn this country around. He tells a personal story to illustrate the point: “When I opened Trump National Golf Club at Rancho Palos Verdes in Los Angeles, I was immediately told that I would need to build a new and costly ballroom. The current ballroom was gorgeous, but it only sat 200 people and we were losing business because people needed a larger space for their events. Building a new ballroom would take years to get approval and permits (since it’s on the Pacific Ocean), and cost about $5 million. I took one look at the ballroom and saw immediately what needed to be done. The problem wasn’t the size of the room, it was the size of the chairs. They were huge, heavy, and unwieldy. We didn’t need a bigger ballroom, we needed smaller chairs! So I had them replaced with high-end, smaller chairs. I then had our people sell the old chairs and got more money for them than the cost of the new chairs. In the end, the ballroom went from seating 200 people to seating 320 people. Our visitors got the space they desired, and I spared everyone the hassle of years of construction and $5 million of expense. It’s amazing what you can accomplish with a little common sense.”On top of his saving years of construction and $5 million in expenses, he also was able to keep the ballroom open for business during the time it would have been under remodeling, which allowed him to continue to make money on the space instead of losing that revenue during construction time.

Donald Trump’s entire life has been made up of success and winning. He’s been accused of bankruptcies, but that’s not true. He’s never filed personal bankruptcy. He’s bought companies and legally used bankruptcy laws to restructure their debt, just as businesses do all the time. But he’s never been bankrupt personally. He’s a fighter that clearly loves America and would fight for our nation. Earlier I quoted Trump saying, “I love America. And when you love something, you protect it passionately – fiercely, even.” We never hear that from Democrats or even from most Republicans. Donald Trump is saying things that desperately need to be said but no other candidate has shown the fortitude to stand up and say them. Looking over this list of what he wants for America I see a very necessary set of goals that are long past due. Before we criticize someone because the media does, maybe we should seriously consider what he has to offer.”

Oldefarte

Spoken like a true supporter of the LOSER [and career non-senator] RICK; whose only claim to fame is desirous of becoming POPE. No doubt Trump has faults, BUT AT LEAST HE IS AN AMERICAN CAPITALIST [unlike the present RULES FOR RADICALS TROJAN-HORSE now destroying this country]. Trump [for whatever reasons] has brought attention to illegal immigration, to foreign countries/governments that are at economic war with the USA, to the $17 trillion debt that the STUPID AMERICANS facilitated by voting for/electing the RULES FOR RADICALS DEMOCRATS historically. While the RICKSTERS in congress accomplish nothing while accumulating congressional paychecks and benefits in political-prostitution fashion [paid for by taxpayers], at least Trump E-A-R-N-S his income through economic/financial accomplishments. Want the REPUBLICAN/RINOS to once again lose another presidential election and to allow the RFRDs to continue their destruction of this nation, then continue trashing people like Trump in order to benefit career Republicans running for SAINTHOOD THROUGH ANTI-ABORTION !!!!!!

NNccWW

Capitalization is not an argument.

Oldefarte

Neither is stupidity!!!!

Oldefarte

Amazing that previously Trump was apparently praised [” Last night, Carly Fiorina made herself a player by – like Trump — punching the bully in the nose”]??????? Is this what is known as FLIP-FLOPPING??????

Richard Karkkainen

Your name becomes you.

Oldefarte

Aren’t you the IRS director [that is sc*ewing American conservatives]??????

Cher had wise words on the candidate during her TV variety show days: He was a scamp, a camp, and a bit of a tramp, he was a V, A, M, P… vamp.
